What Now?

Please don't tell me we're here again.
It feels almost like we're at an end.
But I know that isn't true.
But there is nothing I can do.
I have seen this place before
With you standing at the door
But you can't come in
And I can't shut it, not again.
Where are the words?
What will we do now?
How did this happen again?
The trying wore us down.
Does it matter?
Will this end?
When this night is over
Will you still call me a friend?
Not an idea how we get ourselves into these things.
Want to fly away, but where are my wings?
Have you seen them anywhere?
Do you care?

There we were. Everything was fine.
Spinning around in the circle.
Now we're at the end of the line.
All of the madness made things right.
But now the calm
Is a cold dark night.
There are no stars.
There's a cold brisk breeze.
I want to move again
Run the track, feel my heart beat with ease.
But we're cursed with silence and nothing to say.
Every time we try it makes things worse.
Where is the end to this silent day?
I need the madness.
It keeps me alive.
We need the poison
That keeps us revived.

But now we're standing in the silence.
Nothing treasurable to be said.
I hope this ends soon
Before we're both dead.
Every foolish statement
Echoes through the air
And of course it must be noticed
Because it's the only thing that's there.
I wish there was something to say
I wish it didn't have to be this way.
All I can do is ask you what it is you want.
Does this bother you or not.
Maybe we should just stop wondering how
And take a moment to ask what now?
That way we can both stop being fools and wasting words.
The evil of this silence makes our foolishness heard.
But maybe if we stopped to think
We could stop this things and make something great.
Maybe if we took a look around
We could find someone who can relate.
And so before you leave me now
Before you go and question how
I'll ask the simple words What Now?
Please tell me you know.
